Our stay at Totem Beach Club was a mix of stunning location and disappointing rest.
The setting is absolutely beautiful — right on the beach with breathtaking sunsets. We were welcomed with a delicious non-alcoholic drink, which was a lovely touch. Our ground-floor ocean view room was spacious and had a refrigerator.
Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. The shower was practically on top of the toilet, which felt poorly designed. During the night, there was constant noise from someone very close to our room watching something on their phone for hours. It wasn’t another guest, which made it even more frustrating.
On top of that, bright lights from the pool and street stayed on all night, and there were no proper blackout curtains. The room was filled with light, making it almost impossible to sleep.
We wanted to extend our stay but were glad the hotel was fully booked. After such a sleepless night, we realized this was not acceptable — especially for the price. The location is beautiful, but if you want guests to truly rest, this needs improvement.
